Developing a a genuine sense of self-concern is a necessary foundation for kindness and compassion towards all beings. In this ongoing practice-based weekly class, we’ll look at the difference between self-compassion and self-indulgence, transform emotional barriers and resistances, and practice responding to self-judgement and criticism with understanding and patience.

This program is open to everyone. No experience with meditation is necessary, and you’re welcome to attend one or all of the sessions. More info: https://shantidevanyc.org/.../meditation/metta-meditation/
